Cold the rain against my skin
Just as needles, sinking deep.
We feel emotions setting in as soul and body
Separate
Where, now, the meaning of this life?
Fleeting moments suddenly seem
Eternal; lo, we realize
Details were once forgotten dreams.
As skyward journey leads us where
All are one in mystery.
